Cockburn's Special Reserve Port 75cl

The Port that changed the game. Originally introduced in 1969, Cockburn?s Special Reserve bridged the gap between vintage ports and their younger counterparts, creating an approachable yet complex new port category.Produced from wines selected for their richness and concentration from the finest vineyards in the Upper Douro Valley, Special Reserve is matured in oak casks for 5 years before being bottled. This longer wood-ageing gives its fruity, full-bodied palate a distinctive dry finish, making it the benchmark for all Reserve Ports. Rich and concentrated red fruit aromas with bright red cherry and hints of plum and strawberry. Sweet and well-rounded, luscious red berry flavours lead to a distinctive peppery finish. Special Reserve pairs perfectly with cheeses or rich, nutty and chocolate desserts. Serve in a large glass at room temperature or slightly chilled in warm weather. No need to decant. Consume within four to six weeks of opening.
